May 18, 2023

The affected programs, many of which are at for-profit institutions, risk losing federal financial aid. The Biden administration released its long-awaited gainful-employment rule Wednesday evening as part of a 1,000-page package of regulations that also includes rules on financial responsibility, administrative capability, certified procedures and ability to benefit.
